Are you freakin kiddin me? This is what we have spent our money on (for those of us who actually HAVE dropped cash for these games). Sure its cool in concept but CCP should use their funds to build better games not buildin monuments and crap.
Consider this guy outrageously pissed. |

what's wrong with a company honoring the people that made them big?
how is that offensive, i've seen plenty of companies screw their fans up the ass, and you want to paint ccp as bad for building their fans a monument?
you need to reconsider your priorities. |

CCP has problems with management and is well known for moving at a snails pace on every project they work on. Part of this problem is also do to the fact they spread their company assets across multiple projects, many of which do not generate revenue or are not wanted at all by the playerbase -- which they historically REFUSE to acknowledge until the bankers themselves come knocking.
There are more than a few people, including myself, who believe that maybe this kind of investment should have been spent on hiring new and better developers that can solve the problems they haven't had the attention span to fix for the last decade.
Instead, it's being invested into an expensive monument nobody will ever visit.

I don't see any problem with this. As an Eve Online player playing since 2008, I feel honored to be a part of this. CCP has always been a great company and they even do "PLEX For Good" charity drives which donate large sums of money to people in need. They did one for almost every disaster as well that occurred since PLEX was introduced.
At least give CCP credit for honoring the players in such a big way. Besides, our names will be immortalized on stone rather than on a computer which is awesome to be honest. Try looking for another game company that does that for its players.

Interesting conversation going on in the Eve Online forums about this
Although I find it kind of stupid for people to still think that Eve Online is a broken game after 11 years. Things have vastly improved since the infamous Jita Riots of 2011. At least now we get to bring paintball guns and shoot at the moment in protest the next time we get pissed. LOL

Nothing wrong with this in my opinion, and actually its really cool. My only beef is the actual sculpture doesn't exactly shout "EVE." If I were to look at it with no prior knowledge I'd have no clue what it is.

Let's see. EVE is a 10 year old MMO that fairly regularly sets records in the number of people online, the player base generously give to good causes through the game and the market is being studied by economists for potential ways to improve economies in the real world.
Dust is a free FPS with not terribly, great numbers that wouldn't actually exist anyway without EVE.
Also, it's not just CCP spending money, it's the city of Reykjavik as well if I remember correctly from the video I watched.
So yes, you're right. It's outrageous that you're pissed off.

If you've ever created an eve character before I'm pretty sure he'll be on the monument, even if you didn't log in during March. They're using the name of the primary character on every account, which is probably the highest SP character. |

Instead of CCP being a private company which generates revenue for itself.

CCP is a small company and they have done more for their fans and customers than any other company, especially a game company, than I have ever heard. They sent our names to space for Christ sake. They also do tons of charity with the plex for good events.
They could have spent the money on worker bonuses, or corporate jets, or hookers and blow or another waste that so many other companies do. Instead that choose to honor the players that made them successful, which is awesome. Than you CCP.
Most importantly, it is THEIR money. They can do whatever the hell they want to with it. Anyone that wants to get pissed at them over this should change their tampons and get da fuk over it.

He's right. Way to many flaws in the games that need fixing, that we have been blateny throwing red flags on?! They're ignoring these issues to build a monument.... great?! Fix the game, and give EVE players a cookie already?! Hire more employees to help with actual issues.

I believe they're just playing to you EVE guys side since they have all but blundered dust horribly?! They needed someone in their corner, which dust players are, but 1.7 was tragic?! So as a result the forums look like one bad CCP bashing forum post after another?! Dust players are investing money and time into an unbalanced game, and have been doing so for a long time now. So before anyone says we're whining, go play dust 514. EVE doesn't have this problem. You have safe high security space, while dust is the wild wild west!
We're not saying this was a bad thing honoring EVE players. We're saying they should be fixing the constantly mounting issues before popping bottles?!

Think of that 1 month re-subscription as the non-current EvE player fee for getting on the monument. Do you complain when you by a game but do not get the pre-order bonus because you 'did not' buy the pre-order? Same thing. Something is beinng offered, you either want it and are willing to pay the price, or your not and you need to focus on the things that are worth your time. If you a current player of EvE then you've got nothing to worry about, if not then weigh $15 against being apart of an MMOs memorial. Basically their saying it's free for those players, New and Old that are with them today but they'll let anyone be apart of it if you subscribe in the allotted time. I think that's pretty generous.
It's quite simple if you think objectively. Or logically. Or intelligently. Or past your nose.

Well, EvE payed for the coding of Dust in the first place, a game that you can now play for free.
yes, please be pissed on CCP for giving you a free game and burning some money that they made out of 10 years from EvE to a Monument that honors people that love space games (even in the hard time that scifi had in the last years)

I can't fathom the idiocy in the thread. People are actually bitching about something great CCP are doing to:
1) Adding more public art to the world
2) Honouring the EvE subscribers by immortalising their virtual personalities on a real world object
3) Leaving a true legacy of EvE for all to see, not some virtual entity in cyberspace
If DUST was at its 10th year anniversary I could understand, but it isn't, so stfu.

Then again, stroking the, uh... 'ego' of their main franchise's player base could help open those wallets a little more.
